Good deadlifting today. Everything felt strong and smooth. Held the 285X1, and the last back-off set for time at the top.
Was pretty tired after all this. I was pretty sure I could get an all-around PR on RDLs if I did one all-out set with straps, and I did. Up till now, I've been using my back-off DL weight as my RDL weight. Possibly, I should stay at this weight and stop using straps for the extra grip work...
Loading and un-loading the bar for shrugs felt like it took years, I was so tired.
Chins felt okay despite the low energy.
Even though I was tired, I had a while to wait for the bus, so I did 2 extra sets of curls just with an empty bar. Yeah, yeah, I know. "If you've got energy for extra curls, you could have done extra RDLs or chins."
